adjust the guides of the workload and the electric cylinder so that
they are exactly parallel. This alignment avoids excessive wear on the guide.
Change Connector Orientation
You can rotate the SpeedTec DIN-connector housings up to 325°.
Follow these steps to rotate the DIN connectors.
1.
Mount and fully seat a mating cable on the connector.
The connector provides a larger area to grasp and extends the leverage force.
2.
Grasp the mated connector and cable plug with your hands and slowly rotate the motor
connector into the new position.

ATTENTION:
Do not rotate the piston rod during installation. If
the piston rod rotates, the mechanism that allows the electric
cylinder to extend and retract will break.
Use two wrenches to install the workload.
Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in
damage to the electric cylinder and its components
ATTENTION:
You can rotate the connectors into a fixed position during installation of the electric
cylinder and keep them in that position without further adjustment. Strictly limit the applied
forces and the number of times the connector is rotated to be sure that connectors meet the
requirements of IP66 for the motor portion of the electric cylinder.
Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in damage to the motor and its components
